THE HANGOVER (photo) & "looking through old posts..." (mixed format, non-dream poem) by Roswila

looking through old posts
for a poem to re-post today:
what am I searching for?
isn't that always the question,
and, as always, I've not a clue

I turn toward the brightening window:
the marine layer's* just about burned off

that will have to suffice, I set my fingers
to keyboarding and begin a tanka


[non-dream tanka with two two-liners written 9-21-18. *The mornings at certain times of the year here in south central coastal CA are rather foggy. It's a "marine layer" that ultimately keeps it relatively cooler than other areas around us, while still allowing for a sunny mid-day and afternoon. Photo "The Hangover" (9-12-18 002v2) by Roswila]

PLEASE NOTE: in most browsers you can click on the above image for a larger version. Also, the photo accompanying a post is not necessarily meant to illustrate it, but to reflect some small, even slant aspect of the verse, similar to Japanese haiga (illustrated haiku).

There are many other sorts of posts on this blog. I indicate which are about or influenced by dreams. Some non dream focused posts are book reviews, "regular" poems (some by other writers), scifaiku, writing exercises, Tarot haiku, photos, haiga, and so on. However, most of those are in much older posts. There's a listing by month going back to early 2006, at the end of the sidebar.

until next time, keep dreaming,
